As stipulated, I base my conclusions on logical extrapolations, and not facts. Please reread post 48. If you see where I said this game is factually crap, then I will eat my words. I stated that I have these facts, and I am extrapolating these conclusions based upon them. That method of utilizing surrounding data, to extrapolate logical conclusions, is by nature a conjecture.
To the point, your conjecture is that we wait and give the benefit of doubt. My conjecture is that people should react to this, and cancel pre-orders.
Neither conjecture is based on 100% accurate facts. You can't really have accurate facts until the game is no longer being updated, which won't presumably be for at least a year post launch. By then you could have wasted $60. By cancelling that pre-order you don't get to play day 1, but also don't have a purchase that you may regret. Is it so unreasonable to remove a Gangrenous pinky, in order to prevent the disease from consuming your arm? Yes, I could theoretically not have Gangreen, but the risk to reward for not removing the pinky is weighted in favor of its removal.
This said, whatever you want to say going forward will not be answered, I tried to stop arguing, but apparently didn't make intentions clear. Allow me to rectify that.
You win, I stop giving a crap and bow to your point. This is taking more effort than this crap deserves. If you are so dead set on a pre-order then you can keep your pre-order. If the game isn't as good as promised or demonstrated you have already locked in your course.
